What Contra Is About
Professor Pohl, already disliked at his university for his manners, makes a racist remark to Naima, a student who arrives late to his lecture. When video of it spreads across the internet the rector has to act, but Pohl is not dismissed: his penalty is to coach Naima for an important debating competition. Two people who could hardly be less alike end up on the same team. Sönke Wortmann handles racism inside the shape of a comedy and puts the weight of it on the student’s side. Nilam Farooq plays Naima and Christoph Maria Herbst plays Pohl.
